Default GS Headrest Install Lcd Screen Help?

Hey Guys,
I'm Planning on installing some Headrest screen in my car soon.
I'm wondering, Guys that have them installed already, where did you guys put the power/video wires? did you guys put it through the post? then to the seat? did you guys have a make a hole for the wires? anyone care to show some of their install pictures?
thanks for the help guys.
Johnny.

i had the front headest redone to fit a bigger size tv and the guy had to nake a hole at the bottom of the headrest to pull the wire threw and than the shop that installed that music 4 me made a hole in the top of the seat under the headrest ( not noticible when headrest is pushed all the way down) to pull the wire threw inside the seat to get to the bottomand pull threw the side of the console to get under the seat to connect to brain. sounds confusing, seems easier done than said but it worked out well. i'll have posted pics 2night of my whole just installed system.

and headrest down so u can't see anything, by the way they run the wire threw that hole than take off theback part off the seat where the u can store papers or magazines to run the wire down than put rear part of seat back.

hey blulex, i just two and two together, didnt realize i was talkin to u in the other threads as well. lol i see some nice palm trees in the background. niiiceeee florida. soon my parents will have a condo out in florida. cant wait, i can go on vacation whenever i want.


oh also, pulling the back of the seat off sometimes breaks the clips and makes it very hard to get back on. little piece of advice, if you got small fingers just stick ur fingers in the seat (inbetween the seat and the backing that comes off) and try and grab the wire then pull it out of the seat back. next just run the wire down the side of the rear portion of the seat. and just slide the wire in the crack of the rear seat backing and the seat.

this is what i did with my headrest tv's all though it might not work for you, (im not sure if the GS has the same rear seat backing as an RX)
